ERP / Workday Test Lead

Belfast | Hybrid | 15-Month FTC | Up to £65,000
MCS Group is delighted to be partnering with a leading organisation as it undertakes a major enterprise-wide Workday transformation.

We are seeking an experienced ERP / Workday Test Lead to take end-to-end ownership of the programme testing lifecycle. You will ensure that business processes, integrations, data migration, security and reporting are fully validated and that the organisation is ready for a successful go-live.
Acting as the central point of coordination between the programme team, systems integrator, Workday, business stakeholders and third-party suppliers, you will provide independent assurance over solution quality, programme risk and deployment readiness.

The role

You will:

• Develop and maintain the Programme Test Strategy and Test Plan.
• Establish testing standards, governance, controls and reporting.
• Define entry and exit criteria for each testing phase.
• Plan and coordinate testing across a multi-module deployment.
• Manage test-script preparation, execution, schedules and resources.
• Coordinate business participation and support users through UAT.
• Facilitate test-planning, defect-triage and readiness workshops.
• Establish and manage the programme defect process.
• Monitor testing progress, risks, defects and quality metrics.
• Ensure business processes are fully represented within test scenarios.
• Support dress rehearsals, cutover and deployment planning.
• Provide formal testing sign-off and go-live readiness recommendations.

What you'll need

• Previous experience as a Test Lead or Test Manager.
• Experience leading testing across a multi-module enterprise-system deployment.
• Strong understanding of Finance and Procurement modules or processes.
• Experience developing test strategies and programme test plans.
• Strong UAT, defect-management and quality-assurance experience.
• The ability to coordinate business users, technical teams and external partners.
• Excellent stakeholder-management, reporting and communication skills.
• Experience assessing risk and readiness ahead of go-live.

Previous experience leading an ERP testing programme is highly desirable. Workday knowledge or experience supporting a Workday deployment would be particularly advantageous, although strong candidates from other ERP platforms will also be considered.

What's on offer

• Salary up to £65,000.
• 15-month fixed-term contract.
• Hybrid working from Belfast.
• Annual bonus and healthcare.
• 25 days' annual leave plus 11 public holidays.
• Excellent learning, development and wellbeing benefits.
• The opportunity to lead testing across a significant enterprise transformation.
